Only P4 schools have the means to do the max 20m rev share. We are doing it without full B12 distributions. I think our NIL grow especially if CWF has us winning.
Weāll get āBucket #1ā deals when we are winning.
UT can get āBucket #1ā deals even if theyāre trash.
Thatās my point lol
But they havenāt figured out how to āmoney ballā itā¦how to build a competitive roster.
Right now, Manning has proven to be a HUGE waste of an investment.
They paid millions to have him sit for two seasonsā¦and then when they play himā¦heās a worse P4 QB than Weigman (our QB NIL investment)
We out moneny balled them for this season
They threw every resource at winning a championship and are underperforming.
We are getting way more out of our rooster
Yeah but Manning is an outlier. Not in a good way, but heās an outlier. His hype was largely on his last name.
Again, Weigmanās largest NIL deal isnāt really involving UH. Weigman came here because of the fact that itās down the road, and that Fritz coached his dad.
Thatās not to take away from Houston or Fritz. In fact, itās benefitting our program that Fritz has so many relationships throughout his 3-decade career. Fritz KNOWNS people.
I think 2026 is where Fritzās recruiting is truly setting the foundation. 2025 was our portal era (Weigman, Conners, Koziel)
I agreeā¦CWF and Jr. will establish a strong nucleus, due to his recruitung efforts, that we can keep happy with the abundant Bucket #2 NIL opportunities in the massive metro of Houston and then we need to raise more bucket #1 funds to attract impact āhired gunsā.
Butā¦CWF has found a bunch of G6 level 'hired guns ā that have worked out for us.
A dominant Tight End was well worth that bucket #1 investment.
Bonagura has us playing both Pop Tarts and Alamo, Schlabach Texas Bowl against Oklahoma
ready? if they win out they will deserve it. ready or not should be in it
Big 12 unfortunately blew its foot completely off when it went 0-3 against the sec. Perception means way more than it should in this sport, and people still talk about TCU getting dawg walked by UGA.
So it is vitally important that we win against LSU and OU in 27/28.
